Bug Description
Binary package hint: usb-creator
currently usb-creator runs only as root. Ideally this would not be required and would work completly unpriviledged.

for some operations that need priviledges (like mounting, partitioning and formatting the stick) we'd ideally have policykit support.
for operations like reading an isofile, bsdtar or libarchive can be used.
